. Application filed October 1, 1910. Seria1 No..584,801.

Toall whom git Mai/ concern: Be it known that I, WALTER P. DAND- LIimRfa citizen of Switzerland, residing at fWest All-is, in the county ,of Milwaukee iand 'StateofWVi'sconsin, have invented cerliable to violent distortion; especially in case of accident, 'such'fas a short-circuit.

provide simp I It is theobiect of my present invention to y and 'eificiently for supportm' such pro'ectingend turns.

n mostynamo-electric machines the end turns make loops, and each loop genwhic ';'erall includes a half turn the plane of passes through "the axis of the ma-.

chine In carrying out my-invention I run rodsithr'ough the' loops forming the end t'u'rns," and support such rods from the frame of that memberof the machine of which the windingsform part.-

' --The-various-novel features of my invention will appear from the description and drawings, and-will be particularly pointed out in the claims- Figure 1 is a partial section through a dynamo-electric machine embodying my invention;.-Figs. 2-and 3 are partial end views of the stator of such machine with the end cover removed, and show two modifications of my invention; and Fi 4 is a sectional View on the line 4- 1 0 either Fig. 2 or ilthou h my invention is not limited to such app ication, I have shown it as used for supporting the end turns of the stator windings of a definite pole, rotating field.

alternator. The rotor comprises a numported in the usual manner by a shaft, hub,

and radial arms. The stator comprises a slotted, annular, laminated corez12 clamped betweenendplates 13, and armature windend portions 14. The statoucore may e mounted, if deings having projectin such adjustment may I of the nuts 19. If.

sired, in a yoke 15, which, if desired, may

carry end covers 16.

Each end turn 14 makes a loop, including a half turn in a .plane passing through the axis of the machine. Rods 17 extend through these loops, preferably on the axes of the aforesaid halffturns. These rods may I be short ones, as illustrated in Fig. 2, in which case, they extend through but a few of'the end turns as illustrated, they extend through four end t'urns. -If short rods are used they are preferablyrstraight, as illustrated, though this is not necessary. If the rods .17 are curved they may be made longer,

as illustrated in Fig. 3; if desired, they may extend entirely around the machine through I jecting from the end plates 13 or from any other convenient part of the stator frame.

The rods 17 are supported from the rings 18 by means of bolts 21 which extend through such rings and are attached in any the bolts 21 are hook bolts, and grasp the. rods 17. The hooks of thebolts 21 may be seated in grooves 22 in the rods 17 Bysuitable way to the rods 17. Preferably tightening the nuts 23 of the hook bolts 21, v .i

the rods 17 are drawn toward the rings 18 and theend turns 14 'arejclamped against such rings. In case any adjustment of'the rings 18 axially ofthe machine is desired,

sired, the end turns 1 may be spaced apart on; the rods' 17 by Washers 24 and 25, though in many cases such washers are not necessary.' j

Many modifications in' the precise arrangements shown and described may 'be made without departing. from the spiritand scope of my invention, and all such modifications I aim to cover. in the following claims. i

What I. claim as new is:

1. In a dynamo-electric machine, the combination of a slotted core, coils in the slots of the core and having end turns outside the slots, rods passing through the end turns, and washers on said rods forseparating adjacent end turns.

2; In a d name-electric machine, the combination o a slotted core, coils located in so; he obtained bylhmeans "--'-thr'"u gh the end turns, a ring mounted at eat: *end of the core and substantially confcentric" therewith, and means for fastening the slots of the core and having end turns beyondthe ends of the slots, rods extending through the end turns, and means for supporting said rods.

'3. Ina dynamo-electric machine, the combination of a slotted core, coils'located in the slots ofthe core and having end turns beyond the e'ndsof the slots, rods each ex tending through the end turns of a plurality-of coils,fand"means for adjustably supporting said rods.

- 4.. In a ;dynamo-electric machine, the com bination of a slotted annular core, coils in the slots in the coreand having end turns eyond the ends of the slots, rods extending "-1. .-.-.-the' rods to the rings.

In a dynamo-electric machine, the comcated in the slots of theoore and having end turns beyond the ends of the slots, rods each extending through a plurality of end turns, rings of insulatingmaterial fixed relatively to the 'core, and means for supporting said.

rods from said rings.

I y 6. In a dynamo-electric machine, the combinationnf a slotted annular core, coils lorin cated in the slots of the core and having end turns beyond the ends of the slots, rods each extending through a plurality of end turns, of lnsulating material fixed relatively .to t e core, and, means for drawing the rods to the rings to clamp theend turns between the ringsand rods.

7.5 In a dynamo-electric machine, the combination of a slotted core, a frame supporting said now, coils in the slots of said core and having end turns beyond the ends of the slots, rods extending through the end turns, and means .for supporting from said-frame.

8. In a dynamo-electric machine, the combination of a slotted core, coils in the slots said rods of said core and having end turns beyond ,ing a loop bent in a the ends of the core, rods extending through said end turns,a member fixed relatively to the core, and bolts for fastening said rods to said members.

9. In a dynamo-electric machine, the combination of a core and coils, the latter having end turns which project beyond an end of the core, a rod passing through said end-v turns, and means cooperating with said rod for clamping the end-turns in place.

10. In a dynamo-electric machine,the combination of a core and coils, the latter having end-turns which project beyond an end of the core, a curved rod threaded through said end turns, and means for supporting said curved rod. 11. In a dynamo-electric machine, the combination of a slotted core, coils in the slots of said core and having end turns beyond an. end of the core, a. curved v rod passing through said end turns, and means cooperating with said rod for clamping said end turnsin place.

'12. In a dynamo-electric machine,the combination of a core and coils, the latter hav ing end turns which project beyond an end of the core and each ineludea'portion bent in aplane which passes through the axisof the machinefia curved rod threaded through said bent portions, and means for supporting said rod. v 13. In a dy amo-electric machine,the.c0mbination of a slotted core, coilsin the slots of the core and having endturns beyond an end of the core, said end turns each includplane passing through the axis of the machine, a rod passing through a plurality of said loops, and means for supporting said rod.
